Business Development Manager - Life Sciences

We are looking for an experienced life science salesperson to own our UK business and grow it. You would run the territory, sell our full range, and have our marketing team feeding you leads. It is a real chance to build something, with the freedom to do it your way.

Location:
Remote (UK), field based

Salary: £45,000 to £65,000 (based on experience) with uncapped comission

We started Assay Genie in 2017, two scientists who were tired of how hard it was to get good reagents quickly. Since then we have grown into a global brand with offices in Dublin and London, 160,000 products and customers in more than 70 countries. Our antibodies, assays and kits are used in leading academic and industry labs and have been cited in over 1,000 publications.

We are still founder-led, still growing fast, and the UK is one of our biggest opportunities right now.

This is a hunting role. The UK has real potential and we need someone to go after it: winning new customers across academia, biotech and pharma, growing the accounts we already have, and selling our full range of reagents. You will have warm customers to build on and leads coming from marketing, so you can put all your energy into winning and growing direct UK business.

We will give you the autonomy to run it as your own, and as the UK grows there is scope to build and lead a team.

• Win new business across UK academia, biotech and pharma.
• Grow the customers we already have and sell them more of the range.
• Take deals the whole way, from first call to close.
• Keep your pipeline and CRM in good shape, and follow up leads quickly.
• Get out to labs, conferences and events, and tell us what you are hearing.

• 2+ years selling life-science reagents, with a track record of winning new business.
• A science background; a life-science degree is ideal.
• Someone who wants to own a territory and run it, not be managed closely.
• Comfortable taking a consultative sale through to close.
• Ideally within reach of the London, Oxford and Cambridge corridor, with a full UK driving license and the right to work in the UK.

• A base of £45,000 to £60,000 depending on experience, with genuinely uncapped commission.
• Car allowance, pension and benefits.
• The autonomy to own and grow the UK, with the founders behind you and a clear path to grow into senior roles or build your own team.
• A fast, founder-led company where decisions happen quickly and your work matters.
